We work hard to keep a harmonious workplace culture at U.S. Cellular. Have you ever had a conflict with a manager? How did you resolve it?

"Nobody enjoys conflict in the workplace; however, I have experienced it before. In my previous position, there was a miscommunication with my manager with my work schedule. He accidentally scheduled me on my requested day off, and I felt disrespected. I reacted faster than I should have because once we discussed it, I realized he made an honest mistake. I am a firm believer that with mutual respect, conflicts can resolve. I learned to slow my reaction time."
